Our location

Originally the site of a black bear exhibit at the old Glasgow Zoo, since opening as the Black Bear Beefeater, we’ve been a hub for locals and steak lovers passing through. Nestled between Uddingston and Glasgow, just off the M74, our restaurant has convenient parking and offers ideal links for days out in Glasgow, Stirling and more. Our eatery is an inviting, atmospheric setting with cosy seating areas, a stylish bar, vibrant décor and fun Beefeater art on the walls that never fail to raise a smile. Outside is a peaceful, tree-filled garden with ample space for al fresco meals and drinks with friends and family. We also cater for group events and meetings. So, if you have an important occasion coming up, we’ll be here to host it.
